We did the same. Believe it or not Amazon was the lowest. Spent about $9.00 each where they were about $15.00 + everywhere else.Jim schwartz38 landfall SEA YA I WASHINGTON nc -------- Original message --------From: Charlie Nelson via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Date: 4/25/18 12:47 PM (GMT-05:00) To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Cc: cenel...@aol.com Subject: Stus-List LED cabin lighting
I need to replace all the cabin lights/fixtures on my 36XL/kcb and am thinking of a white/red combo LED for all 0r some of them. I mostly race her so the lights don't get used very often. I want to get something that is relatively inexpensive, will not rust/tarnish (forget about the traditional brass stuff) and most importantly will work reliably after long periods of no use. They probably will be powered by the house 12V--I tried battery operated (in the housing) and these were a total waste of money since the batteries corroded faster than they lost their charge! I am talking about forward and aft cabin lights (~ 6 total) which mount to the ceiling with built in switches for on-off and white/red. The housings on these will be exposed--visible so that 'ribbon' type LEDs are out. In the main cabin, I need 4 that will be mounted under the 'shelves' and thus the housings are not important. I also need 2 that would be mounted in the forward cabin corners for reading and 2 in the 'ceiling', all of which would be exposed so the housing is important. I thought I might go with one source for consistency and maybe save some money. I am looking for suggestions from the list before I decide.
